Have you lost money in the market because your
account was mismanaged by your broker? If so, we may be able to help. As Los
Angeles securities attorneys who focus on stockbroker law we help clients
recover investment losses. Everyone knows that the value of investments rise
and fall. Stocks go up. Stocks go down. The fact that the value of your
investments has declined does not mean that your broker has acted improperly.
However, if your broker has mismanaged your account, you may be entitled to recover
money whether the value of your investments has gone up or down. The question
is not so much the rise or fall in the value of your investments. Rather, the
key is whether your investments were handled properly.

Typical types of account mismanagement
are:

Unsuitable Recommendations

Should you have been placed in these
investments?

Misrepresentation

Did your broker tell you everything they should have about the securities in
which you were invested?

Unauthorized Trading

Did you tell your broker
to buy or sell, or did they do it without your
permission?

Churning

Did your broker needlessly buy and sell investments in order to generate extra
commissions?

Obviously, it is best to have a good working relationship with your
stockbroker. However, in the event that you believe your broker has mismanaged
your account you may be faced with the prospect of filing a claim against your
broker. You can bet your broker and his brokerage firm will have attorneys
represent them in any dispute. Your interests are best served by having an
experienced stockbroker attorney on your side.
